Well known hypnotist who does a corking good act. The comedy was received with shrieks of laughter, the applause was cyclonic, and the more serious episodes were very attentively received. The act was good the last time four years ago, but he has made remarkable strides forward, and he really stands alone for a number of this or similar nature. Very strong finish. C.D.F. in 3, 41 minutes.
A genuine master of the accordion. Plays classics and popular numbers and surely plays them. Made a very favorable impression and finished very strong. Conservatory in one. 14 minutes.
Two men and one woman, sketch “The Visitor”. Gained closest attention making point after point and all in all being a legitimate offering well worth while. Very strong finish. Library in three. 23 min.
Rube Character Comedienne who went very well throughout, scoring many laughs and plenty of applause. Very good. Olio in one. 13 min.
Comedy acrobats, two men, who made the biggest sort of hit. Had the house screaming most of the time. Finished great. Garden in four. 8 minutes.
Three men in bounding table work, all of which went very well. Finish strong. Wood in five, 6 minutes.
Three men whose work is singing and piano and banjo playing. Went very well, but by no means the hit I expected from advance information. The fellow told me they were better than the Three White Kuhns must have been a “kidder.” Got along all right but not a genuine hit, finishing only fairly strong. Conservatory in 1, 18 min.
Two women, three men in melodramatic number, “Po White Trash Jinny”. This is a typical offering of its kind, with laughter and pathos intermingled. It is at least “different” and our New Year’s house seemed to thoroughly enjoy it. Over drawn, perhaps, but a good if conventional story that is told in a way that holds interest. Miss Mortimer scored personally and her support was satisfactory. Takes one back to his “gallery days” when you believed everything you saw. Good strong finish. Special set in five. 24 minutes.
Two men and two women, singing, dancing and comedy “From Uncle Tom to Vaudeville.” Made a pretty good impression winning laughter and applause. Nothing big at the finish. Street in one. 14 minutes.
Two girls in skit “Broadway Life”—supposed to delineate the love affairs of two chorus girls. As a whole the act pleased, tho [sic] it is nothing to brag about. Finished fairly well. C.D.F. in three 17 minutes.
